So here we go you guys, hope you enjoy...
Hermione walked down the stairs now she was finally dressed, and walked towards the back garden where she could hear nothing but laughter and it filled her heart up to hear the sounds of her children's laughter.
When Hermione got closer she wondered what had the kids squealing and laughing and stopped short with her mouth hanging open when she saw the snowman dancing and saying phrases from the Frozen movie things that Olaf would say.
''Harry what on earth...''
''Oh hey, yeah the kids built him and I decided to make it move and talk like from the film, there are wards us so none of the neighbours can see or hear so it's perfectly safe and well, look how happy Lyra and Matthew are'' Harry said as he came to stand by Hermione.
Hermione nodded as a single tear made its way down her cheek ''I know, I wasn't mad I was just shocked, it's lovely to see Lyra acting like a child, and for once you wouldn't' think she was dying'' Hermione trailed off softly
Harry wrapped his arms around Hermione's shoulders after her comment because he too was thinking the same thing ''I know Mione, but we can make it the best Christmas she's ever had, but there is still hope she will be around for the next one''
Hermione looked up into Harry's green eyes and sighed ''I would like to think that Harry but we need to face facts, if we take her of the medication she will eventually pass anyhow, same as if she was on the stuff she isn't going to make it Harry, you've seen her she's to weak her heart isn't strong either''
Harry nodded he knew she was right he just wanted to believe it wasn't ''I know, well all we can do is make the rest of her life and childhood the best and a dream come true''
Hermione nodded and smiled. ''Yeah your right''
''Mum, mum come do a snow angel with us' Lyra shouted when she spotted her mother
Hermione smiled ''Oh what the hell come on then all of us make a snow angel''
Hermione walked over to Lyra and lay down in the snow she watched as her daughter joined her she also noticed Harry and Matthew doing the same and smiled as she like Harry began making a snow angel on the ground.
''OK now we need to write our names or initials above it so we know who is who'' Hermione said smiling whilst conjuring a pointy stick and handing it to Lyra, '' Go on then label them''
Lyra walked up to her mothers one and wrote Mummy, then she wrote her name followed by Matthew and Uncle Harry ''There''
Matthew then turned around and smiled ''Grandma, Grandpa will you do an angel as well, and Nanny and Granddad we can have a family one''
Brian smiled at his great-Grandson ''OK lets do it, Elaine love are you ready''
Elaine smiled ''I'm ready, Richard?'' she said looking at her son-in-law
Richard grinned ''I'm up for it, all that's left is...HELEN COME HERE A MOMENT''
''What Richard there's no need to shout'' Helen said walking to the door and looking at her husband
''Sorry love, but Matthew, Lyra, Harry and Hermione just made snow angels, and now Matthew has asked that we all do one''
Helen looked at the snow angels that had already been made and saw them labelled and smiled ''Oh go on then''
''Yes'' Matthew said jumping up and down in excitement ''OK, me, Lyra, Mum and Uncle Harry are going to be in the same order, then I think we should have Nanny and Granddad on mine and Uncle Harry's side while we have Grandpa and Grandma next to each other and on mum's side''
Hermione smiled ''OK then let's do this''
Twenty minuets later saw all the adults and the kids looking at the other angels with a smile, they too had been labelled by both Matthew and Lyra and the angels were all holding hands ''Love give me the stick a moment''
Lyra handed the stick to her mother and watched as she drew a giant heart around the eight snow angels with Family written above the heart ''Wow''
Hermione smiled and summoned her camera that had been charmed to take magical pictures as well, she took six plane ones and a few magical ones she did the same for the one of just the four of them as well and smiled when she was done ''There we go, now we got photos as well''
Harry smiled ''Hey Mione chuck me the camera let's get a picture with Lyra and Matthew with Olaf''
Hermione through the camera to Harry and watched as the kids posed with the giant Olaf snowman that was now back to just snow
''OK now let's have a snowball fight'' Harry said grinning ''Boy's against Girls''
Hermione raised her eyebrows at that ''Oh I see well then I hope you don't mind loosing''
Harry grinned ''No we won't be loosing''
Hermione glared ''Mum, Nan, Ly, come on lets show them how it's done'' Hermione then charmed the camera to alternate and take both magical and normal pictures whilst they played so they would have plenty of pictures.
''Three, two, one, GO!'' Lyra through the first one and it hit the tree beside her uncles head which caused them all to laugh, however soon enough it ended up a free for all that also ended with people falling on the ground.
Hermione couldn't' help but smile at the laughter and the fun they were all having, it was turning out to be one of the best Christmas's in a long time.
Helen heard the beeping of the oven and headed back in to finish the dinner ''Dinner will be ready in ten'' she shouted as she entered the kitchen.
Hermione smiled ''OK you heard Nanny, come on its time to go in, we've been out long enough and you'll catch a cold''
Matthew, Lyra, and Harry headed towards the back door along with Brian and Elaine
''Mum do you need any help?''
''Yes please Harry, could you put the mats and cutlery out please''
Harry smiled and waved his wand, he watched as all the mats landed on the table along with the knives, forks and spoons, he then waved his wand again and the table soon had glasses and two plastic cups in front of each seat ''There we go mum it's all done''
''Oh thanks Harry, why don't' you go in the room with the others, while I dish up the rest''
''You sure?'' Harry said looking at the woman he saw as a mother
''Yes I'm sure now go''
Richard chuckled ''Come on son, you know what she's like in the kitchen''
Harry laughed and followed Richard into the living room.
Harry stopped and smiled at the scene that greeted him, he looked over and saw Lyra sitting on Brian's lap while Matthew was sat on Elaine's he watched as Matthew and Lyra eagerly explained the magical presents and what the shops were like.
Hermione watched her children talking away about their presents and what they do she couldn't believe how grown up they were, they were so big now she knew she needed to let the past go, the fact she wasn't able to be there 24/7 for the twins due to the war, but it was just so damn hard she couldn't' help but blame herself for her daughters illness.
She was supposed to be the brightest which of her age, she had created a potion to help someone get there mind back, and to remove a dark bond, and possibly a cure for Lycanthropy but couldn't' and can't find one for cancer.
Hermione mentally sighed she knew she was being stupid but it was the fact that she hadn't got to be around her daughter as much as she would have liked and now she was dying and to her there wasn't enough time and she felt bad for it.
Yes she had contemplated the turning back in time a few times, boy did she wish she could go back to the whole event after the attack of course, so she could be the mother she wanted to be and should have been, she could have even destroyed Voldemort quicker seeing as she would have known where the Horcrux's resided and in the process save many lives.
But she knew how dangerous messing with time could be and well if she did she could change things too much and tip the balance making things worse than they should have or needed to be. Hermione looked up when she felt eyes on her she knew it was Harry and smiled a weak smile letting him know she was ok.
Harry smiled at Hermione he wondered what she was thinking about but was glad to see her smile when he heard Elaine asking a question of him ''Sorry Elaine I was lost''
Elaine smiled ''No problem Harry, I was just asking what you had for Christmas''
Harry smiled and told them what he received whilst grinning the entire time
''Oh very nice, what about you Hermione''
Hermione smiled at her grandmother ''Oh books, clothes, chocolate the usual, ''Oh I had a charm bracelet, I already got one of a rattle to symbolize the kids, I got one of a graduation cap, book, a heart, otter since that was what my patronus was at one time before changing to a Wolf, a Stag to symbolize Harry's Patronus and I got a mum one as well''
Brian smiled ''That's a very thoughtful gift Harry''
Harry blushed a little ''Well I thought it would be perfect, besides the one of my patronus is an emergency port key in case she is in danger''
Hermione chuckled at Harry's blush ''Yes Harry got a silver tag bracelet with a panther etched in the back that to is also a port key''
''Ah at least we know you'll always be safe if your ever in danger''
Hermione smiled ''That's what's good about them, they are also charmed with a spell I created it's to make sure that it will break through any type of ward, as some places can have no port key or apparating wards but nothing can stop them''
Brian smiled at his Granddaughter ''I'm so proud of you''
Hermione chuckled ''I know'' she said smiling at her Grandparents
''DINNER'S READY''
Hermione watched as the kids jumped up and run towards the kitchen, she followed behind them along with her Father, Grandparents and Harry.
Richard sat down and smiled ''This looks lovely like always love''
''Yes I must admit Angel, you've done a wonderful job, I know you get it from your mother''
Helen shook her head at her father ''Thanks Dad, and I don't know your not bad at cooking yourself''
Hermione snorted ''Yeah if you like pasta, or Curry'' causing everyone else to laugh
Helen shook her head as she took her seat with the others ''Well, let's enjoy our dinner than.
Hermione watched as everyone began to place food on their plates she put some on four Lyra while Harry did Matthews.
''Kids Dinners ready'' Molly Weasley shouted from the kitchen
As usual Ron was the first one up and out to the kitchen
Remus, Severus and Tonks followed behind the rest of the Weasley's casually and all Severus could think about was what the two youngest Weasley twins had planned he decided he would try to skim their thoughts during dinner
Remus smiled at the dinner ''Molly this looks lovely thank you for inviting us''
''Nonsense, I'm glad you all came and there's plenty to go around, I wish Harry and Hermione were here though to make it complete''
Tonks smiled ''Don't worry they will be back in three days and be here for New Year, we get to meet the kids as well then.'' Said a very happy Tonks she was looking forward to it.
Molly smiled ''I know, I've already planned the cake, Hermione says that the boy likes quidditch and music, while her daughter likes animals, music as well''
Fred looked up and smiled ''Why don't you do a Music themed cake then I mean I'm sure Severus knows what a Gutter looks like''
''Guitar'' Severus said correcting him ''Yes Molly I think Fred's Idea would be a good one''
''Or just do one big Music Note as the cake and have their names written on to it'' George pointed out after his twin and Severus stopped talking
''I'll think about it but I do quite like the music theme, I'll have plenty of time.''
Ron snorted ''I think it should be Quidditch after all the kid does like the game''
Molly tutted at her son ''No Ron it's both their birthdays so it should be something they both like, now eat''
Severus looked and noticed that Tonks, Remus and the others had their eyes narrowed at Ron when his eyes met Remus's he nodded slightly before looking towards Ron.
Right then let's see what you're planning, Severus thought to himself as he silently slipped into his mind he smirked in his mind Of course the menace wouldn't' have shields up, lucky he survived so long
Oh for gods sake just shut up already, it's Hermione this, Hermione that, or Harry this and Harry that I'm your child not Harry and Hermione!. I bet she's laughing and joking with Harry and her brats, well when they come I'm not going to play the doting Uncle, she is mine not Harry's. Harry has everything he's not going to get what belongs to me not this time.
Severus was shocked at what he was hearing so continued to listen
Ron was eating his food and looking around not even realizing that Snape was listening into his mind and had seen part of the conversation he had with his sister a few days ago as he continued to complain about Hermione and Harry
She will be mine even if the brats have to stay, never mind at least the girl will die soon, means I'll be able to get closer be the supportive person she needs, then I'll persuade her that she should give up the boy to her parents and not see him because she failed him. Yeah that's one thing mione can't cope with is failing and she loves the brats so she'll do what's best for them just a little manipulation can't hurt anyone.
Ron then looked towards Remus I'll have to make sure Lupin doesn't find out he's to alert and protective of Hermione and Harry bloody wolf senses, No I'll just have to have Ginny take care of Harry I'll focus on Hermione use her emotions and love for the brats to keep her then we'll get married she'll stay at home and care for me, cook, clean and have my children making mum happy.
Ron then looked towards his mother and give his mum a smile and received one back yeah Mum would like that she'll get Hermione to be part of her family same with Harry when Ginny and he marry, besides I'll have the last laugh as I have something Harry Potter can't have. Yes Ron was very happy with his thoughts as he moved to get some more food all that thinking and plotting was making him hungry.
Severus pulled out of Ron's mind and wanted to go over there and rip him apart How dare he say my Hermione is his, I'll show him wait, since when is she mine?...Oh come on just admit it you want her, you care for her...Of course I care for her, She's my friend!...Yeah you keep telling yourself that. Severus shook his head at his thoughts before he looked at Remus and nodded slightly letting him know he's looked, he knew one thing he would do all he can to protect Hermione, the twins and Harry and he knew that Remus and Tonks would as well.
